a pillow in autumn

Outside the front hall of Nanyi Court, women all over the place were waiting on the porch, and a few young girls were in the room, holding many things in their hands, when they suddenly saw Prince Rui barging in, they were all stunned.Shuyao was also really taken aback, and when she realized it, she winked at Siyuan, but Siyuan didn't see it at all, her small mouth was slightly opened, her face full of disbelief.

Shuyao had no choice but to move over and tug at her sleeves, Siyuan came back to her senses, and stopped saluting, and hurriedly led Shuyao and the people to avoid going out, only walked to the door and couldn't stand up again and again Looking back, Shuyao saw her curious eyes, gritted her teeth and pinched her under her sleeve.Siyuan suppressed a smile, grabbed Shuyao's hand with his backhand, and went out together.

Seeing the person he had been thinking about for a long time suddenly appear in front of him, Zhou Mubai felt as if he was in a dream, and he was completely oblivious to the things around him.

"You...are you here?" After a long while, Zhou Mubai asked blankly.There was confusion in her eyes, and she was no longer as shrewd as before.

Xian Xun knew that what she wanted to ask was, why are you here, but she was so happy that she said it without beginning or end.

Going forward, she slightly raised her head and looked at her with a smile: "I am here."

Mu Bai blinked, "Why are you here?" He still asked blankly.

Xian Xun lowered her eyes, Mu Bai got closer, and saw her face slowly turning red.She didn't speak, but she understood.

I miss you.So here I am.

Mubai's brows and eyes were curved, his dullness completely disappeared, his eyes became extraordinarily bright, and there was endless joy in the brightness.She stretched out her hand to hold Slim's hand, and the callused palm conveyed a reassuring temperature.Xian Xun raised her head under her gaze, and saw the tenderness and pampering in her eyes, with Feixue dancing behind her, but in front of her eyes were only each other's bright smiles.

During dinner, Zhou Muyi came back with a few jars of good wine, when he heard that Prince Rui had arrived, he threw the horse bridle in his hand to the guards, and ran to see him in front of the hall.He distributed the good wine and scalded the wine for all the attendants to remove the cold. He kept a jar of aged wine alone, and had a drink and chat with Zhou Mubai.The two brothers have not seen each other for many years, and each has experienced a lot. They talked and laughed together by the stove, far away from the cold and warm, and they didn't realize that the twilight had already merged.

Shuyao took care of the master to freshen up, bowed and exited the room.She was not supposed to be on duty tonight, so she whispered a few words to the little girl, and then went to the kitchen to instruct the maid to prepare Prince Rui's usual favorite breakfast in the morning before returning to the room alone.

She hadn't seen Zhou Mubai for a long time, and after more than half a year of experience, Prince Rui became even more heroic.Just lost a lot of weight.She lay on her back on the bed, thinking that for so many years, she and Bi Yue had almost grown up with the third prince. When they first left the palace, they were not used to it. Chess, calligraphy and painting, and Siyuan making jokes from time to time, life is much more relaxed than before.

Thinking of Siyuan, and thinking of her hugging her this morning... Shuyao touched her soft lips, and her face gradually became hot.She rolled over and hid her face in the pillow.After thinking for a while, he closed his eyes again, trying to drive Siyuan out of his mind, but that nasty little girl was specifically against her, lingering in her thoughts and not leaving.

Shuyao hugged the quilt and rolled half a circle, gritted her teeth in her heart: Little rascal!

It was snowing and then clear outside the window, and the girls were all sent out.Smiling, Zhou Mubai sat in the warm pavilion of the station, watching Shen Xianxun's plain dress swaying on the floor, walking slowly in front of her.

Shen Xianxun had already removed the hairpin, washed her hands in warm water, twisted another warm handkerchief, walked up to Zhou Mubai, and handed the handkerchief to her.

After drinking the wine, Mu Bai's face turned a little red, she took the warm handkerchief in a daze, her eyes still glued to Xian Xun's body.Xian Xun took a look at her, took the handkerchief back into her hand, and wiped her face with her own hands, worried that she would get so drunk that she would have a headache tomorrow, so she asked the girl to bring sober tea.

When the warm towel wiped his forehead, cheeks, and lips, Zhou Mubai raised his hand to hold her hand, and looked at her with affectionate eyes, let her hold it, and looked into her eyes .

Neither of them spoke, for a while, Mu Bai rubbed his cheek against the back of Xian Xun's hand, Xian Xun pursed his lips and smiled, watching Mu Bai lower his head, and gently kissed the back of his hand.

"I'm so happy that you are here." Zhou Mubai took off the warm handkerchief, put it aside casually, and kissed her palm with his eyes closed.

Xian Xun was tickled by her, and was about to withdraw her hand, but was reluctant, so she took half a step forward, touched her face, and said softly, "I'm happy too."

"En." Mu Bai responded, opened his hands, and hugged Xian Xun in his arms.

Xian Xun's hands landed on Mu Bai's shoulders, she felt her shoulder bones stand up, she gently rubbed her heart and said distressedly: "Why have you lost so much weight?"

Mu Bai raised his head, looked at her slightly frowned eyebrows, wanted to say that the war is tight, and wanted to say don't worry, but what he finally said was: "Kiss me, it's good."

Xian Xun's face turned red all of a sudden, seeing Mu Bai's expectant eyes, she bit her lip, lowered her head with a blushing face, and slowly approached her.When he was about to kiss her, he raised his jaded hand again, covering Mu Bai's eyes.

Mu Bai obediently closed his eyes, and slowly her kiss fell on her forehead hair, staying for a long time, before sliding across the bridge of her nose, her cheek, and finally landed on her lips.

Mu Bai tightened his arms, Xian Xun's hand that was originally on Mu Bai's shoulder had already wrapped around her neck, rubbing against her lips.Then Mu Bai opened his lips to greet her, and the tip of his tongue quietly penetrated into the slender lips, luring her lilac tongue to entangle and dance together. For a moment, it was like a spring breeze blowing across the heart lake, and it was the sweetest fragrance in memory.

A round of bright moon shines brightly in front of the stage through the slightly raised window.The candlelight in the room danced, reflecting the figures of the two embracing each other, forming a lingering painting on the wall.

After the heavy snowfall, Zhou Muyi set off for Ye County, first went back to Ming Prince, and then divided the food and grass.Zhou Mubai and the Shen brothers escorted Shen Xianxun to Jijun with a group of personal guards.

Because of the arrival of Princess Rui, Prince Rui rested in the other courtyard in the city for a few days, leaving only his personal guards, and the servants brought by Princess Rui from Prince Rui's residence to guard together.

After settling down, the sons of the Shen family returned to the camp with a small group of people to see them off.

When he arrived at the camp, he explained the matter to Wei Jinpeng, General Wei only knew about it, and walked out quickly without touching the ground.Shen Youtang felt strange, so he recruited soldiers to come over to ask questions. He knew that after they went out a few days ago, an unknown plague broke out in the camp. Some people vomited and had diarrhea one after another. The county did not return for the crown prince's wounds, but Bai Mo finally found out the clues from the vomit of the soldiers, saying that poisonous insects crawled over the vegetables and left traces.Wei Jinpeng ordered the grain and grass to be rearranged, and Bai Mo took people to the nearby hills to pick medicinal herbs, boil them and distribute them, and the epidemic was gradually brought under control.

After a few more busy days like this, one afternoon, Shen Yan and Shen Lan practiced their sword moves in the open space. Shen Youtang stood aside and watched with arms folded. The two danced for a while, and a soldier ran over with a letter.Shen Youtang took it for a closer look, Shen Yan and Shen Lan both put away their swords and stood aside.

Youtang said, "It's a family letter from my father, asking how Prince Rui is well, and asking Princess Rui to arrive safely, asking me to do my best to serve the country and take good care of my younger brothers and sisters."

When Shen Yan and Shen Lan heard that it was a letter from their uncle at home, they all listened respectfully.After listening for a while, Shen Lan suddenly said: "It seems that I haven't seen Your Highness for seven or eight days."

Shen Youtang: ...

Shen Yan: ...

Shen Lan touched the back of her head, feeling a little embarrassed for no reason, she held her sword and said to Shen Yan: "Brother, break two more tricks with me!"

Time flies like a white horse, and the winter solstice is after two snowfalls.Shen Xianxun ordered the steward of the other courtyard to pay the money and set up a few tables of sumptuous dishes. After the solar terms, Zhou Mubai was going back to the Red Wing Army barracks.

The winter solstice is always colder. Fortunately, the snow has passed, and the courtyard and the backyard have been cleared out. The servants from other courtyards gather together. The servants and guards are in the courtyard, and the servants are in the backyard. The tables are steaming. Chickens, ducks, cattle and sheep, their faces are full of wine and food, talking and laughing happily.

One after another lanterns were lit around the house, the sky was already dark, Mu Bai leaned on the window sill of the small building of the main house, watching the lights line up.Xianqian was laying out a pajamas on the couch. On the collar of the pajamas were embroidered patterns of auspicious clouds. Her fingers stroked those delicate embroidered patterns, thinking of her mood when she was alone in Ruijing, she raised her head again. Looking at Mubai, Mubai seemed to sense her gaze, and turned around.After the snow, it is sunny and the moon is in the sky.

At dawn, Mubai had a dream. He dreamed of his biological parents who had passed away for many years. In the small town of Haiping, the house was empty but still warm.Her father taught her to write under the lamp, and her mother was mending an old dress. She saw her mother lift the needle and thread to her lips and bite off the end of the thread, and then raised her head and smiled lovingly at her.

Suddenly there was a strong wind outside the house, the sky was dark, and an army of hundreds of thousands of Tu tribes descended from the sky. She was wearing a battle armor and riding a purple horse alone. The long sword in her hand was already stained with blood. They gritted their teeth and fought desperately.

On the battlefield, there were mournful wailing and bones piled up. She turned her head, and behind her was the empty Quyang City. There was no emperor brother, no Red Wing Army, and no one.

The strong wind whipped up the broken battle flag, countless cavalry galloped in front of the eyes, the setting sun dyed the clouds on the horizon into blood color, the blood color gradually became thicker, rolled down from all around, spread out on the yellow sand in the west border, layer by layer , Swords are like frost, one after another.A strong bloody smell permeated from the yellow sand, gradually diffused over the ankles, and reached the chest.

Layers upon layers of voices rang in my ears, my own and others'.

"It's just that the military doctors are afraid. This is... the image of the past."

"Emperor Tu Dominance, Iron Horse Binghe, even if his heart is higher than the sky, there is no way for God to play tricks on him."

"Princess Rui is still waiting for you in Ruijing! Please, please take care."

"If one day in the future, the prince and I are in danger together, you must remember that you must abandon me and protect the prince."

"If this trip goes to the west, don't forget, I'm in Ruijing, waiting for your triumph... Don't forget, I'll wait for your triumph..."

After escaping from the siege of Quyang City, she always had similar dreams, intermittent, vague and clear.Every time at the end of the dream, the endless blood is suppressed in the chest, so real that people can't breathe.

She always tried hard to open her eyes, and kept telling herself, this is a dream, this is a dream, wake up quickly.But the dream was too deep, and she was extremely tired, so she could only float up and down in the dream, watching the red quicksand about to submerge her.

Suddenly a pair of warm hands embraced her, and a soft voice seemed to come from far away: "Husband, husband... Mubai..."

She struggled and her eyes trembled, her hands hugged her tightly, her mood gradually calmed down, she felt a pair of soft lips kiss her forehead, all the dreams were like darkness meeting dawn in an instant, the ruined phantoms in a ray Faded in the morning light.

Mu Bai slowly opened his eyes, facing Shang Xianxun's anxious and worried eyes staring at him.

"Husband..." She frowned and raised her body halfway, her voice concerned: "Did you have a nightmare?"

Mubai's eyes were still a little dreamy, and his forehead was already wet with cold sweat.She tried her best to stabilize her mind and looked at the person in front of her.

Xian Xun put one hand under her neck, turned around to get the towel outside the bed to wipe her sweat, but Mu Bai raised his hand to hug her, and buried his face deeply into her soft chest.

"Xing'er..." Her voice came up, trembling with uncertainty.

"I'm here." She turned around and hugged her, patting her on the back lightly.

Mu Bai let out a breath, as if he let out a long sigh, and his hands tightened a bit.

"Xun'er." She raised her head slightly, looking at her delicate eyebrows in the pale morning light, "There are bloody slaughters on the battlefield, corpses are scattered all over the field, and there are many, many people who will never return to their hometown. Sometimes I can't help but I’m afraid, I’m afraid I’ll never go back to Ruijing, I’ll never see my father, and I’ll never see you again.” She paused, and said softly, “But I want to go back alive, because I still have something to tell. you."

Xian Xun put down her supported arm, nestled into Mu Bai's arms, and said stubbornly and even arrogantly: "Even if you told me those words, you should come back well. Because I will always be there, and when you find me place, waiting for your return."

Mu Bai hugged her tightly, smiled slightly, all the fear in his heart dissipated, leaving only the tenderness in his heart.She said sincerely: "Xun'er, I want to tell you... It is Mu Bai Sansheng's honor to meet you. I like you. I like you very much."

The author has something to say: Little Theater:

In the warm pavilion of the station, the little princess said: "After more than half a year, my husband has lost a lot of weight."

Xiaobai is coquettish: "I can't eat enough, I don't wear warm clothes, and I talk like shit." As he said, he rushed over to rub his wife: "And I miss you."

The corners of the little princess' mouths were raised, and the Queen's posture: "So I said, you, you, have, a lot, a lot." The key words should be read emphatically~

Xiaobai (angry): "You are the one who suffers, your whole family suffers!"

Little Princess: "Yes, my whole family suffers..."

Xiaobai: ...>_<...
